Embeds documents.
Creates an in memory docstore
Initializes the FAISS database
This is intended to be a quick way to get started.
Example
from langchain import FAISS
from langchain.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
faiss = FAISS.from_texts(texts, embeddings)
classmethod load_local(folder_path: str, embeddings: langchain.embeddings.base.Embeddings) → langchain.vectorstores.faiss.FAISS[source]#
Load FAISS index, docstore, and index_to_docstore_id to disk.
Parameters
folder_path – folder path to load index, docstore,
and index_to_docstore_id from.
embeddings – Embeddings to use when generating queries
max_marginal_relevance_search(query: str, k: int = 4, fetch_k: int = 20) → List[langchain.docstore.document.Document][source]#
Return docs selected using the maximal marginal relevance.
Maximal marginal relevance optimizes for similarity to query AND diversity
among selected documents.
Parameters
query – Text to look up documents similar to.
k – Number of Documents to return. Defaults to 4.
fetch_k – Number of Documents to fetch to pass to MMR algorithm.
Returns
List of Documents selected by maximal marginal relevance.
max_marginal_relevance_search_by_vector(embedding: List[float], k: int = 4, fetch_k: int = 20) → List[langchain.docstore.document.Document][source]#
Return docs selected using the maximal marginal relevance.
Maximal marginal relevance optimizes for similarity to query AND diversity
among selected documents.
Parameters
embedding – Embedding to look up documents similar to.
k – Number of Documents to return. Defaults to 4.
fetch_k – Number of Documents to fetch to pass to MMR algorithm.
Returns
